Gucci soho disco or YSL lou camera bag?

[Jeepgurl76]

I like it very much! And it's so darn cute! It's small but exactly what I needed just to fit my phone, lv key pouch as a wallet, car keys and a lil bit of room left in case I need somethingelse. How do you like your small? How is it holding up? I'm not really sure about the chain plus I really like that strap is removable in toy. Also before price increase I thought that toy was relly worth it and while I'm still sure it's worth it it's just not a bargain anymore

That’s great to hear! I really love the small loulou so much I have it in black and beige. So far both are holding up great! I was worried the chain might scratch the leather. No issues at all with that happening so far. The chain is so light weight, so I love that about the chains. I like that you can wear the small crossbody or pull the chains up and wear on the shoulder. Does bother me a little bit that I’m stuck with the chains for straps and can’t be removed. Since the toy loulou you can switch out the straps draws me to the bag. I couldn’t use the toy as a everyday bag. I think the small is as small as I can go for an everyday bag. I bought the Loulou puffer, two small loulou and a college so maybe I will try the toy

is it true the soho tends to flip upside down? (and the zipper ends at the bottom)

Yes! It does drives me crazy. I have learned to always have it zipped up or I lose the lot. I love the disco but this has always been really annoying. I have the Lou camera bag as well and it doesn't happen for me with that. I have rose beige and black disco so I got the Lou in grey which is absolutely beautiful. Had read mixed reviews on quality but haven't had issues with mine. I checked all the things that were commented on as a problem when I received it. I feel it is a bit more dressy than the Soho. So all 3 are here to stay.

I have 2 discos (rose beige and red). Rose beige I’ve had for many many years. It’s quite old. Travelled to Europe with it. Never happened to me.

Thanks all of you for the answers! I love yls lou but I'm a little concerned about the quality and how long it will last looking decent. Well, still have to think then...

Hey as someone who owns the YSL envelope clutch and the Toy Lou (just purchased recently) I can vouch for the quality of YSL. I don't baby my bags but I don't abuse them either. You'll be fine if you do a wipe down and put it back in the cloth/box after each wear. Hope this helps with your confidence in the brand. I do think it's a more sophisticated brand than Gucci IMO.
